Do I Need Yeast To Make A Quick Bread Recipe
One of the nicest things about making quick breads is how quick and easy they are to make. Rather than using yeast to help the bread rise, quick bread recipes call for baking soda, baking powder, or both. Those types of leavening agents cause batter to rise while it’s baking in the oven. As a result, you won’t have to wait very long to enjoy a slice of Pina Colada bread!
Is There Alcohol In Pina Colada Bread
So that everyone in the family can enjoy the bread, this quick bread recipe is non-alcoholic. If you want the bread to have rum flavor, it isn’t a problem. Just add 1/4 teaspoon of rum extract or a tablespoon of actual rum to the batter.
Can I Freeze Quick Bread
Yes, you can freeze this bread, which is a great thing, because it makes fantastic hostess gifts. To freeze the Pina Colada bread, wait until the loaf is completely cool first. Then, tightly cover it with plastic wrap, followed by a layer of aluminum foil. If properly wrapped, the quick bread should keep well frozen for 3 to 4 months.
Will This Quick Bread Recipe Work For Muffins
Most recipes for quick bread are easy to convert for making muffins instead. Just line a cupcake pan with paper liners and grease them with non-stick cooking spray. Fill the liners two-thirds full with Pina Colada bread batter, then add toasted shredded coconut on top. Bake at 350 degrees F for 18 to 22 minutes. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the muffin (or the loaf). If it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, the bread or muffins are ready to remove from the oven.
